A mechanical stiffener has been mainly applied on a PCB to secure fatigue life of a solder joint of an electronic components in spaceborne electronics by minimizing bending displacement of the PCB. However, it causes an increase of mass and volume of the electronics. The high damping PCB implemented by multi-layered viscoelastic tapes of a previous research was effective for assuring the fatigue life of the solder joint, but it also has a limitation to decrease accommodation efficiency for the components on the PCB. In this study, we proposed high damping PCB with a multi-layered superelastic shape memory alloy stiffener for spatialminimized, light-weighted, high-integrated structure design of the electronics. To investigate the basic characteristics of the proposed PCB, a static load test, a free vibration test were performed. Then, the high damping characteristic and the design effectiveness of the PCB were validated through a random vibration test.

In this study, polymer elastic bumps were fabricated for the flexible electronic package flip chip bonding and the viscoelastic and viscoplastic behavior of the polymer elastic bumps according to the temperature and load were analyzed using FEM and experiments. The polymer elastic bump is easy to deform by the bonding load, and it is confirmed that the bump height flatness problem is easily compensated and the stress concentration on thin chip is reduced remarkably. We also develop a spiral cap type and spoke cap type polymer elastic bump of $200{\mu}m$ diameter to complement Au metal cap crack phenomenon caused by excessive deformation of polymer elastic bump. The proposed polymer elastic bumps could reduce stress of metal wiring during bump deformation compared to metal cap bump, which is completely covered with metal wiring because the metal wiring on these bumps is partially patterned and easily deformable pattern. The spoke cap bump shows the lowest stress concentration in the metal wiring while maintaining the low contact resistance because the contact area between bump and pad was wider than that of the spiral cap bump.

A lot of equipments installed in ships must be isolated for relaxing the shock, vibration and noise using the elastic mounts. Most of the elastic mounts are made of the rubber, however it is not easy to design the effective rubber mount. Because, in general, the rubber has a non-linear constitutive characteristics especially for a large deformation. So, there are many difficulties to estimate the accurate structural response of rubber which is the basis of the shape design of the mounts. In this study, the detailed non-linear viscoelastic large deformation finite element analysis method was dealt with. And to verify validity of the present analysis scheme, the results were compared with experiments.

형상기억합금(SMA : Shape Memory Alloy)은 일반적인 금속이나 합금에서는 찾아볼 수 없는 형상기억효과(shape memory effect)와 초탄성 (superelasticity) 거동을 보이고 있다. 이러한 특성은 1951년에 금-카드뮴(Au-Cd) 합금에서 처음으로 발견되었으며, 1963년에 미국 해군병기연구소(Naval Ordnance Laboratory)에서 니켈-티타늄 (Ni-Ti) 합금에서 형상기억효과를 발견한 후로 널리 상용화되었다. 니티놀(nitinol)이라고 불려지는 니켈-티타늄 계열의 형상기억합금은 단위 부피당 많은 에너지를 낼 수 있고, 내 부식성(corrosion resistance)과 생화학적 적합성(bio-compatibility)이 뛰어나다. 또한 100,000사이클 이상의 긴 사용수명을 갖기 때문에 작동기(actuator)로서 우수한 특징을 갖는다.

Considering the continuing discussion about the Korea-Japan undersea tunnel, it is necessary to conduct a scientific investigation into tunnel deformation associated with large ground movements at fault. This paper presents findings obtained from numerical experiments to investigate a seismic lining that adopts rubber-like material. We utilized the user material subroutine to obtain the deformation gradient of the hyperelastic material. Additionally, polar decomposition is used to analyze the results, where the data is displayed on a series of two-dimensional planes using the principal direction, which facilitates a better insight into the deformation. Tunnel engineers could refer to this paper for the procedure to investigate the deformation of hyperelastic material.

In this paper, mechanical behavior of unidirectional composites with flexible matrix was predicted by geometrical non-linear finite element analysis. Two typical idealized unit cells of square and hexagonal fiber arrays were modeled and these were subjected to different loadings. The stress-strain behavior of composites was predicted from which the effective properties were calculated. The hyperelasticity of polyurethane matrix was considered using Mooney-Rivlin model. In result, the stress-strain behavior of flexible composites shows non-linearity, especially it is remarkable under transverse normal and shear loading conditions. In this cases, there are great difference between square and hexagonal fiber array models.

NiTi alloy known as its shape memory effect also has superelastic characteristic, which makes it possible to be elastic under large deformation. Since the tensile strength of the alloy is very high and density is low compared to carbon steel, it can be applied to lightweight structural design. In order to design structures with shape memory alloy, finite element analysis is used and a constitutive algorithm based on Aurrichio's model is added to LS-DYNA as a user subroutine. Explicit time integration and shell element formulation are used to simulate thin-walled structures. The algorithm uses Drucker-Prager type loading condition to calculate martensite volume fraction during the transformation. The implemented algorithm is verified in uni-axial loading condition and martensite phase transformation can be detected well with the algorithm. In this study, as a energy absorbing structure, thin-walled tube is modeled with finite elements and the deformation behavior is studied. Simulation results has shown that the martensite transformation was generated in loading condition. After plastic deformation reached, the load decreases linearly without reverse martensite transformation.

The mechanical properties of living tissues have been major subjects of interest in biomechanics. In particular, the characteristics of very soft materials such as the brain have not been fully understood because experiments are often severely limited by ethical guidelines. There are increasing demands for studies on remote medical operations using robots. We conducted compression tests on brain-like specimens made of gelatin to find substitutes with the mechanical properties of brain tissues. Using a finite element analysis, we compared our experimental data with existing data on the brain in order to establish material models for brain tissues. We found that our substitute models for brain tissues effectively simulated their mechanical behaviors.

평판형의 열가소성 수지를 유리전이온도 이상으로 가열한 다음 압력을 가함으로써 원하는 형상의 제품을 성형하는 열성형공정은 대상 수지가 큰 변형을 일으킬 뿐만 아니라 비선형적 거동을 보이게 된다. 따라서 수지의 변형거동 예측과 최적성형조건의 설정에 많은 어려움과 시행착오를 거치게 되는 바, 열성형 공정의 최적화를 위한 연구의 일환으로 원형 평판위 수지를 대상으로 수지의 부풀림 거동과 이에 따른 두께 분포를 예측할수 있는유한요 소법의 수치모사 알고리듬을 개발하고자 하였다. Piola-Kirchhoff 응력 텐서와 Green 변형 텐서 및 lagrangian 변형 텐서를 사용하여 평판상의 응력-변형에 대한 비선형의 에너지 수 지식을 수립하고 Newton-Raphson 반복수렴법을 이용하여 근사적으로 해석하였으며 수지의 유변학적 구성방정식으로는 neo-Hookean 모델, Mooney-Rivlin 모델 및 Ogden 모델등의 초탄성 모델을 사용하여 그결과를 비교하였다. 수치모사에는 두께가 매우 얇기 때문에 두께 방향의 응력변화를 무시할수 있는 membrane 가정을 도입한 2차원적 해석과 두께 방향의 응력 변화를 고려하는 3차원적 해석을 모두 수행하고 그 차이를 비교하였으며 3차원적 해석 의 경우에는 penalty법을 이용하여 비 압축성을 만족하였다. 일차적으로 내압을 받는 두꺼 운 원통계에 대한 수치모사 해석을 수행하고 완전해와 비교함으로써 개발된 수치모사 알고 리듬의 열성형 공정에의 적용 타당성을 검증하였으며 이를 이용하여 원형 평판의 자유부풀 림거동을 예측한 결과 Treloar 등의 실험결과와 잘 부합함을 확인하였다. 또 간단한 형상의 금형이 있는 경우와 반지름 방향으로의 온도변화에 따른 수지의 변형거동을 해석함으로써 실제 열성형 공정에서 요구되고 있는 성형품의 두께 분포를 균일하게 하기 위한 방안을 제 시하였다.

Liquid silicone rubber(LSR) has been applied to various products such as electronic devices owing to its excellent thermal and chemical resistance. Hyperelastic materials, however, have properties distinguished from general metal materials. Hyperelastic materials show elastic behaviors in the range of large deformation in which load has the nonlinear relation with deformation. In addition, they have characteristics of nonlinearity, incompressibility, in large scale. On account of such characteristics, there are many difficulties in design and production using these materials. In this study, the load-deformation relation obtained from tension and compression tests was applied to finite element analysis in order to design waterproof connectors for automobiles. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the finite element analysis was confirmed by comparing the results of analysis with those of performance tests.
